CIDER is an inter-disciplinary synthesis center, research incubator, and research framework for tackling the fundamental question of the nature of global geodynamic processes. CIDER has a strong emphasis in cross-disciplinary training of early career scientists. It aids communication across disciplines and scientific generations and provides mentorship and research opportunities for the next generation of solid earth scientists. The ultimate goal is to understand the origin, evolution, and dynamics of the Earth and planets.
On the YouTube CIDER channel, you can view archives of recent and previous talks and lectures presented at the yearly summer CIDER workshop.
